Anyone able to explain the difference before I finish working? 85% of income or something?

Yet another choke hold on any club outside of the chosen few who have the temerity to show any ambition to challenge.

It won’t stop them punishing us again even though they all know the current rules are not fit for purpose

Nope, us and Forest, maybe Leicester, will get it in the neck with this set of rules they all know doesn’t work, then the clubs they care about will get off Scot free.

So clubs refuse to agree an EFL deal until the P&S rules are amended?

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

It’s almost like a bunch of teams who wanted something to be done to us suddenly realise the same thing is about to be done to them….

What happens to Leicester now?

 

[f.t.r.s]

So basically everyone agrees the rules are a load of crap but hey as long as its just everton, forest etc they can get points deductions...

Also the new rules basically guarantee half of the league will stay where they are....no improving, just know your place unless you have an off season and go down right?

What happens to Leicester now?

If they broke the rules for 22/23 they should still face the same charges as us and Forest, unless there’s some sort of amnesty on all three.

I'm in favour with that system as it works in Spain and clubs are a lot more sustainable now and getting financial healthier in Spain, despite the 2 covid seasons that affected badly. It made our league more competitive overall, but of course a club like Real can spend more than a promoted team, because of better revenue.

It can mean teams stuck to certain position, but teams with a good youth system/scouting have the chance to thrive with those rules. The problem in England is basically, owners cannot invest into clubs from their own money to make a smaller team grow due to FFP. Crystal Palace recently complained about that. That hinders them to grow and get closer to the top teams. If there are legal ways to do, I also expect that an owner is personally liable in a legal way in case he doesn't grant these payments.

I think it kills the PL position against its business competitors. I am surprised the EPL are up for this

Think of the worst scenario, that's what will happen

We’re going to get eaten by the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man

 

[Bez2k2k]

If I’m Everton I’m now asking super silk to look to see if we go off the was new rules would we have breached. Then again, look at taking the league to court and saying the rules where clearly not fit for purpose.

Ray, what did you do!?

Can anyone briefly explain the new system?

Yes.

Man City earn 700million a year, so they can spend 85% of 700million a year on players and wages.
Everton earn 190million a year, so they can spend 85% of 190million a year on players and wages.
